About James

James Hunt was a British actor and BBC newsreader known for his work in stories about autism. Prior to his broadcasting career, he was a racing driver who competed in Formula One from 1973 to 1979. He achieved notable success in motorsport, including winning the 1976 Formula One World Drivers' Championship with McLaren, and securing ten Grand Prix victories across seven seasons. Hunt began his racing career in touring cars and moved to Formula Three in 1969. His early reputation was marked by his reckless driving style and a prominent playboy lifestyle. He joined Hesketh Racing in 1973, making his Formula One debut at the Monaco Grand Prix and earning podium finishes in his rookie season. In 1974, he achieved multiple podiums and a significant victory at the non-championship BRDC International Trophy. His victory at the 1975 Dutch Grand Prix is regarded as one of racing's greatest underdog wins. After Hesketh's sponsorship issues, Hunt joined McLaren in 1976, where he clinched the world championship in a closely contested battle. He continued to race with McLaren and later with Wolf, retiring from Formula One after the 1979 Monaco Grand Prix. Post-retirement, Hunt established a career as a television commentator and columnist, including work for the BBC and The Independent. He also mentored Mika Häkkinen through Marlboro. Hunt passed away from a heart attack at the age of 45 at his home in Wimbledon.

FAQs

Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.

If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.

What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?

Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.

How do agency tiers work?

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.

What is a talent profile?

A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.

Can I switch plans later?

Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.

Do you offer a free trial?

Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.

What happens if I cancel?

You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.

Is the 20% annual discount automatic?

Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.

What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?

That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
